no one in this forum has traveled with no return flight booked?

I have been to Canada before and never overstayed my visits. I do plan to leave in summer, but I don't know the exact date as I don't know if I get an invite to apply for a work permit under IEC program. For this reason I am thinking of not getting a return ticket.

I am from a visa-exempt country and I am planning to fly to Canada and stay there with my spouse who is an international student for 6 months. I have a bank statement of his bank account (around 17k dollars) and a printscreen of my account balance (around 4k dollars). I am not sure about the...

I am not sure if it will affect your chances, but you definitely have to mention this fact in your application. Honesty is the best policy for sure.

My spouse is about to apply for a study permit and I will submit my application for an open work permit together with him. We did an eligibility assessment form and we were provided with the list of necessary documents. The list of my documents says that I need to provide proof that my visit is...
